    Summary

    Orioles are monogamous. They will only nest with one other partner for their whole lives. It is no wonder they are careful who they end up nesting with.

    So most of the Lightkeeper and the 5th Company wonder how in the abyss did those two got together.

    This is the story.

    aka
    The writer got possessed and wrote this fic pairing and no one could stop this one. Also 90% drafted well before 6.6 but the writer is also a pieces of shit who has a day job and couldn't pace themselves.

    Summary

    Lohen had heard that in Nod Krai, omegas were extremely rare, many would be lucky to be with one. Which is why there is no way Illuga wouldn't fall for him.

    "Facing so many enemies head on too, you could have gotten severely injured.” Illuga suddenly started to lecture him. This isn’t the praise he was expecting. Then the alpha had the audacity to move on to someone else.

    Fine if Illuga wasn't going to pay attention to him then he'd just have to take matters into his own hands and what better way to use them than attempt to assassinate Illuga! Wait, what?

    Summary

    Not for the first time, Illuga thinks there must be something wrong with him. Maybe he’s been possessed by the Wild Hunt. Maybe the kuuvahki is finally getting to him; one too many mandragoras, or something like that.

    Either way, there has to be a reason. Why else would Illuga keep letting Lohen into his bed? Why else would Illuga allow Lohen to use his body again and again, leaving Illuga with bruised skin, aching bones, and a weary heart?

    ‘Friends with benefits’ is a phrase he’s heard before, and it makes sense. The life of a Lightkeeper can be cold and lonely, so it’s only natural to seek warmth and comfort from another. But Illuga never expected to find himself in such an arrangement, if what they have can even be called that. Lohen’s rough treatment offers no benefits, and they certainly aren’t friends. Illuga doesn’t even like him.

    This can’t possibly be what Flins had in mind when he suggested that Illuga take up a new hobby.

    Summary

    “So,” Venti began, drawing out the sound. “What do you want to ask of me?”

    Zhongli licked her lips. She had a thought, one that was dangerous and could jeopardize their lengthy relationship, but she couldn’t help but want.

    She wanted to confess to Venti, to undo the layers she had buried her heart under and culminate everything she had worked hard for since the Cataclysm (no, her ascension as Geo Archon) and finally allow her to be herself.

    But the rational part of her brain screamed at her that it was a terrible idea. What if Venti was appalled by her feelings? Or thought that their friendship had been built upon lies because Zhongli simply wanted to have the Anemo Archon by her side?

    (Protect and cherish, the dragon inside her whispered. Do not allow her to succumb to the machinations of the Heavens.)

    “A kiss.”

    Summary

    It was surprisingly hard to keep a vigilante presence off the radar.
    Somehow, it was when Tommy was using his identity that could literally turn invisible, that he’d been almost immediately clocked by the heroes. He’d really only been just starting to have a presence when the heroes cornered him about it. Surprisingly, instead of attempting arrest, they’d recruited him. And who was he to say no to free access to the hero database and nice bathrooms?
    One power per secret identity, that was his rule, and he still had a couple more up his sleeve. The heroes could have one. As a treat. He was generous like that. He’d just take more care to keep his other identities off the radar.
    Simple.
    If only things worked out as planned. Somehow, it hadn’t taken long for his next vigilante persona to be noticed as well, though not by heroes this time.
    “I hear you talk to ghosts.” Said a deadpan voice.

    --

    Tommy can't help wanting to help, and he keeps getting powers so why not have more than one secret identity, yeah? Hero, vigilante, villain, coffee barista, and maybe one other.

    Or I read so, so many vigilante fics that I caved in and stuffed all of my ideas into one fic.
